• lie of Interest to Our Readers.
Ciod news bears repeating, and
whed it is confirmed after a long
laps* of time, even if we hesitated to
believe it at first hearing, we feel se-'
cure in accepting its truth now. The
follcving experience of a Harrisburg
man is confirmed after a year:
I. Mfred Lewis, retired railroad en
gine«\ 1714 N. Fifth St.. Harrisburg.
says: "When I was running on the
road, I was bothered a great deal at
timei by my kidneys. Whenever I had
one »f those attacks, Doan's Kidney
Pills soon relieved me."
Thp above statement was given Au- :
gust 2S. 1914. and on January 26, 1916 j
Mr. -ewls added: "1 haven't had oc- ;
casiol to use Doan's Kidney Pills since
T gaie my former statement, recom

■cure is lasting, considering that the
troutte had been with me for so long
befcie I took them.'"

DR. S. Z. SHOPE
President.
At a meeting of the Pennsylva
nia Educational League held last
week. Dr. Samuel Z.' Shope of 610
North Third street, this city, was
elected president.
This new organization is composed, !
not of teachers and school authorities,
but of busy men engaged in commer
cial and professional pursuits.
The objects of the Pennsylvania
Educational League are:
To endeavor to arouse business
1 and professional men to a proper
I interest and co-operation in our
public schools and institutions of
' higher education in Pennsylvania.
, To persistently contend for ade
quate full pay for teachers twelve
months in the year and to aid in
every movement tending to insure
men and women engaged in educa
tional work compensation commen
surate with the splendid service
thev render to society.
To establish a Students' l/<an
Fund for the purpose of aiding
Pennsylvania high school graduates
who evince eagerness to study and
prove by iheii mental receptiveness
to be deserving of collegiate edu- !
! canon.
To work assiduously for every
bit of proposed legislation. State
and national, designed to elevate
the standard and increase the
efficiency of American Educational
Institutions.
By this it will appear that the new
organization does not encroach upon
the field of the State Teachers Asso
ciation nor that of any other asso
ciation of eduiators but to bring busi
nessmen in harmony and co-opera
tion witli these.
Outgrowth of Rotary Club
The league, is really an outgrowth;
of educational activity In the Rotary
'Club. Last year in an address before
the Harrisburg Rotary Club, Dr.
Shope plead with businessmen to'take,
more Interest in matters educational. |
He said, "The Harrisburg Rotary Club
.is interested in all things educational)
but are you individual members inter
ested in the advancement of the edu-1
cational interests of this city and com
munity as you should be? For!
i some years you have been paying I
taxes to be spent on educational
work, but I venture to say that
less than ten per cent, of you
have been inside a schoolroom since
the day your teachers and the school i
board graduated you just to get rid of
you. or you were permanently remov
!ed from school for one reason or 1
other. You ought to get around to
the school at least two or three times
each year to encourage the teacher,'
the school authorities and the pupil
by showing that you are interested in
seeing what you get out of those taxes.
You would go fast enough if the
school house-were your factory, vine
yard, cornfield, hennery or pigsty. Your
actions seem to prove that you do not
realize that children constitute the one \
really important crop this country
raises. I wish I could have had every
one of you with me in Gary, Berkley,
L6s Angeles and in Cincinnati in or- j
der that you would have been astound-'
ed as I was at the interest in educ-a-,
| lion evinced by everybody. It would
!be difficult to find in any of those!
cities, a citizen who is not interested \
in and thoroughly conversant with the
plans of education and progress of the
schools of his city. School interest is j
displayed by every one—in office and '
.workshop, store and factory as well
as in the house. SCHOOL INTER
EST is what needs to be aroused and :
fostered on the part of the citizens of;
Harrisburg."
I-ater he stated to the Rotary Club
that the smaller colleges in this State
are providing undergraduate instruc- j
tion and training superior in some
ways to that provided by greatly ad
vertised universities and that it was
the duty of the Harrisburg Rotary I
I Club to demonstrate this fact to the
1 public.
In accordance with a decision of the'
iclub. Dr. Shope persuaded Susuelian-!
na I'niversity to present claims forji
recognition and the occasion was a
success. In an address delivered to f
the Alumni Association of Susque- :
hanna University and elsewhere he set j
forth the advantages that would ac- j
crue to the educational interests of
this State by paying all the teachers'
adequate salaries TWELVE MONTHS
in the year so that the teacher would j
not have to become a book agent three
months each year but could follow Ir
postgraduate work and travel thus
making himself or herself a more and
more proficient teacher.
Further, having had to struggle for
an education himself, Dr. Shope has;
always been ready to help the ambi- !
tious poor boy to a college education. !
In addition to his personal efforts 1
along this line, he fostered a students':
loan fund in each cf t>vo institutions 1
of which he is a graduate. These two '
funds have helped many young men I
and women to realize their ambition ! (
who would otherwise have been denied .
the advantage of a college education. 1
Stimulated by efforts along the '
above lines, groups in several parts j
of the State hive been operating along i
similar lines. From each of these
groups committees urged thfe forma
tion of a State association to inaugu
rate a united movement. This re
sulted in the organization of the
Pennsylvania Educational League and '
Dr. Shope was elected president. ! 1
The League though but a few weeks!
old has several hundred members and, I»
judging by the interest manifested in j
various parts of the State, it is not''
unlikely that before it is six months j '
old it will have a membership of a; 1
thousand or more. The officers will
apply for a State charter.
